I would like to know the real problem being solved by this patch. Since 
this patch just synchronizes the synth and midi threads, I think it 
might be a concurrency problem with the synth and midi threads, I think 
we talked there might be some missing required locks.

On the negative side, for big buffer sizes, the midi resolution timer 
will be lower than it should because the midi resolution will be the 
same as the audio latency.
